Hey everyone pretty new to the forum thought I would go ahead and introduce my Jeep to the group. Joined last month been lurking ever since. I live in Greenville SC and have a 2006 LJ, 80k miles, auto, D44 rear, d35 front that I purchased bone stock this spring with 77k on it. LJ is my weekend vehicle, I have a 2014 Ram 1500 quad cab 4x4 that is my work/ non off-roading trip truck. I previously had a 2000 TJ sport manual that I sold in March to upgrade to the LJ. Its only my grilfriend, 40lb Boykin Spaniel and myself right now but I know in a few years there will be one or two kids so I wan't to get a jeep that we could all fit in with camping gear.
Current mods are:
ARB Quadratec stubby front bumper
SuperWinch Tiger Shark 11.5k SR (synthetic rope)
LOD Signatures series rear bumper and tire carrier with trail rack and jerry can mounts
OME 934 front coils (ZJ V8)
OME 949 rear coils (LJ)
Bilstien 5100's (for 3” of lift)
OME rear track bar relocation bracket
Energy suspension front and rear coil isolators
Daystar bump stops
Quadratec 16x8 silver Moab's (set of 5)
BFG KO2's (set of 5 in 315/75r16)
procomp steering stabilizer
1.5” Spidertrax wheel spacers
1” front seat risers
Brackentron mounting bracket for CB
Cobra 75WX ST CB radio
KC Hilites gravity LED Pro-Sport driving beam
LifeTime LED rear bumper flush mount 20watt 40 degree flood light
Switch-Pros SP8100 8 switch panel power system (similar to SPOD, except more switches and better price)
VisionX Tantrum LED rock lights
Future mods:
definitely want to make a custom storage drawer system for the rear area with the seat removed need to spend some time figuring out gear(the system will have to be easily removable as I do carry passengers in the back seat from time to time)
re-gear to 4.88's (Southeast Overland is really close to where I live and will have them do the gears)
Flat fenders or possibly highline kit
as of right now roof rack and rtt are way down the line of mods
Before and after pictures
Recent trail ride
The last 2 pictures are side by side comparisons with my buddy's stock 2005 LJR
